In 1307 King Phillip IV of France ordered the arrest of many leading Templar Knights. Over the next seven years the entire leadership, and thousands of Knights, were tortured and executed bringing an end to one of the great crusader orders.
The challenge is to find a way to prevent the fall of the Templar Order with a POD no earlier than 1303 and the Fall of Raud, the last lands controlled by the order in the Levant.
I just began reading Les Rois Maudits and the first book begins with the execution of the Templar Grand Master Jacques de Molay which got me thinking on the possible effects of a surviving order.
